About
This park was named for Albert Kelly, an early settler in Oregon. He was born in 1814, in Pulaski County, Kentucky. In 1848, Albert and three of his brothers set out for Oregon. He and brother Clinton got as far as Independence, Missouri, when Albert's livestock were scattered by a storm and lost. Clinton kept on going, but Albert turned back and delayed coming west until the following year. Albert first scouted the area now known as Holladay Park, but was discouraged by the lack of a reliable supply of water. Later, he and Finice Caruthers explored the area west of the hills, and found it much more to his liking.
